    Surf and Rockabilly drums?  Sounds intriguing.  I can get fairly close to Phil Collins sort of drums with Superior Drummer 2 using gated reverb; but a Phil Collins drum thing still sounds intriguing; Phil would probably want to get paid for that.

    Bear-Faced Cow,

    Howdy!  Your song has an 80’s vibe, which is fine by me!  I detect some spiritual elements in the lyrics.  The vocals and the instrumental parts sound very good!  Nice song and recording!  🙂

    Bear-Faced Cow,

    I have had some major spiritual experiences involving the Holy Spirit.  Nice to see you posting music again.  I think your song sounds quite good!  Everything sounds good instrumentally and vocally.  Nice guitar solo!  Cheers!  🙂

    OK, thank you for clarifying.  If a person has a bunch of songs, a person could spend the rest of their life trying to tweak & improve old songs.  I guess there is a happy medium in there somewhere.  Not the same thing as you, but when I upgraded from a 4-track cassette recorder to a Roland VS-880, I spent a lot of time rerecording dozens of songs until I could not stand it any longer.

    Holy Cow, Bear-Faced Cow!  You work on 25 songs at once?  Or you are just adding bass to 25 older songs?  I typically only allow myself to work on one song at a time.  But I am currently juggling 2 songs.  About 90% done with one of them.

    Thank you for listening and replying, I appreciate it!  If you have any songs that you want me to check out, leave me a link, and tell me which song.  I know I have checked out several of your songs in the past.   🙂

    I have yet to try EZBass, because they don’t have a demo version that I’m aware of, but I thought this was a good video I stumbled onto:

    satrianalf,

    Sounds very nice & relaxing!  Especially after getting into political debates with my coworkers.  Excellent piano playing!

    I’m never going to win in the Loudness War.  I’ve spent a bunch of time with compression lately trying to improve in that regard though compression/limiting can do things to the audio I don’t like, or easily makes it very fatiguing to listen to.  I can still use improvement though.  Thank you for listening & commenting!

    satrianalf,

    This song sounds pleasant, though I liked the other song I commented on today quite a bit better.

    satrianalf,

    Intro synths sound very nice!  Feel free to tell me what synths you used.  The whole song sounds very good!   🙂

    In your two other most recent threads, you seem to be missing links to the songs.

    satrianalf,

    Thank you for listening and commenting!  Yeah, that is a common problem for me, where the drums get overwhelmed with other sound.

    I agree with you.  I have noticed ages ago, whatever I recorded last is quite loud.  I want to hear it well to determine if it sounds OK.  Then after some time, I keep gradually turning it down until it reaches a decent level.  This might take place over several days of working on a song on most days.

    Years ago, I saw a statement on some music-related forum where someone said something like: I never finish a musical project.  It just gets abandoned.

    I thought that was funny.  Sometimes I feel like I will keep working on a song until I can’t stand working on it anymore.  Then it is finished!

    Bear-Faced Cow,

    I do use automation to the best of my ability.  Sometimes it is easier to look back on something more  objectively months or years after I finished recording it.  Though my hearing isn’t completely consistent from day to day also.  And then there is the issue where l get tired of working on a particular song, and I know it could be a bit better, though I want to work on something new.  Ever get that way, where you get your fill of working on a particular song?
